First sentence: Chesterton was a writer about beliefs, and we tend to follow him instantly into his subject-into economic or political or moral issues; into Distributism, Eugenics, Wine, Divorce, whatever-without paying much attention to the technical or formal aspects of his writing; except, of course, that we enjoy his paradoxes and startling analogies and breezy alliterative antitheses.
